Tour Description​

Our St. Peter’s Basilica and Dome Tour for Kids is a fun, engaging way for the whole family to experience the Vatican.

Climb to the top of the Dome and enjoy panoramic views of Rome -360 degrees of beauty that will leave you speechless.

After spotting the best landmarks of the Eternal City from above, continue your adventure with a fully personalized tour of St. Peter’s Basilica.

Discover the secrets behind the Burial of Saint Peter, Bernini’s Baldachin, and Michelangelo’s Pietà, while learning about the history of the Vatican State.

Leaving the church, you'll be greeted by stunning statues of the Apostles, Saints, and Martyrs that dominate the façade of the Basilica, along with Bernini’s Colonnade in St. Peter’s Square.

This tour is especially popular with families, as it allows young explorers to enjoy the Dome climb rather than squeezing into the crowded Vatican Museums.

Important information​

The Dome elevator is available for part of the ascent, but you will still need to climb approximately 300 steps to reach the very top. If you have seniors, individuals with disabilities, or those who are claustrophobic in your party, we suggest they wait in the Café area downstairs, as the staircase is narrow and the steps can be quite steep;

St. Peter’s Basilica is an active church and may be unexpectedly closed for liturgical ceremonies or other unforeseen circumstances;

Entry to the Basilica is permitted only to appropriately dressed visitors. Low-cut or sleeveless clothing, shorts, miniskirts, and hats are not allowed;

All visitors to the Basilica must undergo security checks, which may lead to queues, especially on crowded days;
